Tony, you are one really weird dude. Keep being weird. Very creative, by the way.

really cool. I like the originality of the angles.

Hey everyone!

I figure I'd drop in to say hello and post some photos for all to enjoy from Skim Fiesta. I'd say the conditions were second only to the 2004 Skim Fiesta. And even that is...

Nice footage. I watched it a second time without the music and liked it a lot more.

Suuuper fun day. I'd give the wall an 8/10 for the conditions and waves.

Thanks. But my approach is directed slightly different than most of my peers in the research community. Cancer is such a horrific condition to develop that I want to spread actual awareness about...

Jim, I finally had the time to go through the entire thread! I am very sorry to hear of your diagnosis and treatments, but it sounds like your tumor responded well to chemo+radiation. I am not sure...

That would make an excellent question for my blog. I'll give the short answer: No. There are a few types of cancer that can be caused by viruses:

Do you support cancer awareness? Of course you do. So, what do you know about cancer?

Hey everyone,

I used to be good at shooting skimboarding photos and would frequently post on here. ...

Hola SOMB,

The sun finally came out yesterday here in La Jolla. And as such, I snuck out of my research lab a little early and met up with the Frymann brothers. My camera came too. I got a few...

my main complaint with 10th street is that I rarely...

from January 2007. Random day down at West. Not epic, but the light was decent and I FINALLY got a...

I think Harley should operate the Steve Taylor blog.

those were a few really good days! Though those are not hi-res.

When I get...

Hi everyone

I finally gave in and started a smugmug acct, as I am no longer shooting professionally.

Hey everyone!

It's been a while since I shot skimboarding, and even longer since I posted photos here. I swear I'm not dead, though I admit that I kind of fell off the radar. Grad school means...

I still shoot skimboarding from time to time.

Hey guys

I'm not dead!

I moved back down to san diego and I'm a PhD student now, working on Neuroblastoma. Which means I am practically a lab rat and have areas that I did not know could get...

As a skim fiesta organizer for 5 consecutive years...

my vote goes to moving it to the 1st week of january.

We've had more than 2 inches of rain in the last 3 days (that's 20% of our annual...

Yup. Doing cancer research in San Diego and slowly starting my PhD work.

I'll be shooting photos as the wall wakes up from its summer slumber.

Great issue! I really miss not being able to spend more time shooting photos these days. Work has a tendency to do that...

ummmm... take a look. An acutual scientific article:...

awesome video. Props to Derek, Aaron and Dave for putting together these videos this year. It really gives the contests (and skimboarding) a sense of legitimacy. (Good PR)
